Chapter 13: A Feast of Flowers

With such a prosperous fireworks, I don't know how many times I can watch them, at least Su Wanxi sighed in her heart.

The sky seemed to be awakened by fireworks, and the snow was falling one after another. The two of them were silent, and quickened their pace back.

"Wait. When she was about to arrive at the mansion, Su Wanxi saw a dark shadow on the side of the street.

Su Zi heard the sound and saw that she had already walked towards the black shadow.

There was a shivering girl sitting on the side of the street, who looked about the same age as Su Wanxi today. The girl was unkempt and dirty, wearing a dirty old cotton jacket, shivering in the snow.

"What's wrong with you?" was supposed to be the most lively and jubilant day, but the girl sat alone on the side of the street, even if she was a beggar, she would gather in groups. Su Wanxi felt inexplicably pity.

The girl raised her head and looked at Su Wanxi, thinking that she had seen a fairy under the fireworks and night. "Sister fairy, are you here to save me?"

Hearing this, Su Wanxi couldn't help laughing, looked at the girl and asked again, "What's wrong with you?"

The girl threw herself into her arms with tears in her eyes: "Sister fairy, my family is not rich, my mother died very early, and now my father owes a lot of gambling debts, and he wants to sell me to pay off the debts." I've been running out for days, hungry and cold, am I dead?"

Su Wanxi sighed lightly, hugged her and said, "It's okay, it's okay." ”

"There are such people everywhere on Lin'an Street, can you help one, can you help all of them?" Su Ziyou walked over from behind and looked at her coldly.

The girl who was crying heard Su Ziyou's voice and realized that there was still someone, and the person in front of her was not a fairy, so she quickly let go of her hand, "Miss...... I'm sorry, I'm sorry!"

"It's okay. Su Wanxi comforted the girl, and then turned to Su Ziyou and said, "Brother, I want to take her back." ”

Su Ziyou chuckled lightly and said, "What's the use of asking for such a waste? Do you dare to guarantee that she is not a fine worker?"

Su Wanxi said: "I just want to be accompanied by a normal maid." Besides......" she paused, "it doesn't show a flaw, does it?"

Su Ziyou was silent for a moment, thinking that what Su Wanxi said was unreasonable, the subordinates of Su Mansion were all strictly trained killers, and if they went out with Su Wanxi, it would increase the possibility of making people suspicious. The reason why I didn't look for someone to stop it as a pawn in the first place is also the same purpose, to reduce the possibility of being suspected as much as possible.

"Whatever you want. After he finished speaking, he carried the osmanthus cake to the gate of the mansion.

"Let's go, you'll be with me from now on. Su Wanxi said to the girl.

"Is it really possible?" the girl's eyes sparkled with hope.

"Well, what's your name?"

"My name is Qing'er. ”

"Well, come with me. ”

"Sister fairy, no, miss, you are so beautiful! I just thought that a fairy had come down to pick me up!"

Qing'er has a simple heart, and after entering Su Mansion, she became Su Wanxi's personal maid, and after having Qing'er, the entire Su Mansion also has a lot of vitality. Because she never knew that the old women and gardeners in the house were all killers, she often mingled with them, and even had a good relationship with them, and even played naughty tricks on them, and she didn't know that there was a dry skeleton buried under the garden, and she often went to pick flowers to decorate the room.

Day after day, Su Ziyou wants Su Wanxi to learn, she has almost mastered everything, and now she has been learning perfumery with Feng Po. Su Wanxi felt that Feng Po taught herself very little every day, and she understood that if she had completely learned perfume, then Su Ziyou would have to send herself to someone else's side.

In the blink of an eye, winter goes to spring, and the Hundred Flowers Banquet arrives as scheduled.

At that time, Su Wan wore a lilac dress, put on a simple bun, and took a sedan chair to go to Qiu's Mansion with Qing'er. In the past few years, the Hundred Flowers Banquet has been presided over by Qiu Shangshuling's second daughter Qiu Zi, and everyone was invited to Qiu Mansion to attend the banquet, and this year she also received an invitation to the Hundred Flowers Banquet.

"Miss, what kind of banquet is the Hundred Flowers Banquet?" asked Qing'er quietly outside the sedan chair.

"It's just a boring feast for a bunch of boring people. "Think about how boring I was to come up with such a banquet in the first place.

"Oh. Qing'er nodded as if she didn't understand.

"Qing'er, remember that I don't care what you do in the house, but outside, you must be peaceful, talk less, and just follow me. ”

Qing'er responded with a smile: "Yes, Miss, Qing'er remembers!"

Su Wanxi looked at Qing'er and smiled slightly, every time she saw Qing'er, she would have a feeling that she was really alive, the people in Su's Mansion all seemed to be from hell, Qing'er always said that she was like a fairy, but she felt that Qing'er was a little fairy for nine days, with anger and hope. It's just that...... I don't know who Su Ziyou will send him to in the future, and I don't know what hardships Qing'er will suffer with her.

When I arrived at Qiu Mansion, I was led by the descendants of Qiu Mansion to the back garden of Qiu Mansion. The spring sunshine is extraordinarily warm, and the garden is full of warblers and swallows, and the fragrance of flowers is overflowing, which is extraordinarily lively.

"This is Miss Su, right?" a woman dressed in golden silk orchids greeted her with a smile.

"Miss Qiu. Su Wanxi smiled faintly and expressed her greetings.

"Hey, how do you recognize me?" Qiu Zi was very puzzled, he had also sent invitations to Master Su before, but he always said that Jiamei was ill, and today was the first time that the young lady of the Su family came, how could she recognize herself?

Su Wanxi smiled lightly and said, "Then how do you recognize me?"

Qiu Zi raised his eyebrows and smiled: "I have long heard that the young lady of the Su family is unparalleled in the world, and I know all the young ladies here, and I guessed it when I saw you coming over." ”

Su Wanxi nodded and said, "Although it is the first time I have come here, I have long heard of Miss Qiu's frank personality, and besides, there are so many young ladies, but you are striding towards me, you must be the master." ”

"Haha, it's better to see than to hear, Miss Su is really smart. ”

"You are the Miss Su that my mother often mentions?" a gentle voice came.

Su Wanxi looked at her when she heard the words, she was a sick beauty, and she walked like a weak willow supporting the wind.

"This is Mrs. Li's third daughter, Li Yue. Qiu Zi generously introduced.

"I've seen Miss Li. "It turns out that this is Lord Li's daughter, looking at this Li Yue's weak appearance, I really can't imagine that Lord Li wants to push such a daughter to the position of the crown princess.

"Miss Su is polite, I always hear my mother mention you, and I finally saw you today. Li Yue smiled slightly.

Wanxi also really wanted to visit Miss Li, but she felt sudden, so she couldn't get her wish, and today is the right time and place. ”

"Well, it seems that this Hundred Flowers Banquet is really useful!" Qiu Zi nodded with satisfaction, and said, "Don't stand and talk, let's come over here and sit and enjoy the flowers." ”

This Hundred Flowers Banquet is no longer what Su Wanxi once looked like when she was founded, and she can be regarded as having a deep understanding today. The daughters of various adults get together, and it is very peaceful to enjoy flowers and drink tea on the surface, but many people are secretly comparing, comparing the status of the family, comparing the appearance, and dressing......

Today is the first time Su Wanxi has come to participate in the Hundred Flowers Banquet, because she is dressed relatively plainly, she will inevitably be secretly ridiculed by many women, and it is precisely because of her beauty that she is even more jealous of the women.

"Hey, Wanxi, how long have you been here, you're the youngest. In the pavilion, Qiu Zi asked her nicely.

Only then did she remember that her body was only fourteen at most, and she was ...... I think I have to wait for myself to come, so Su Ziyou will arrange his own whereabouts.

"Wanxi, what's wrong with you?" Seeing her distracted, Li Yue called out.

"It's okay, I just remembered something, and it's almost autumn this year. She thought about it, and when it was ten years in autumn, it should be over for her to learn art with Feng Po.

"Oh, then you can participate in next year's spring audition!" Qiu Zi looked at Su Wanxi tentatively.

"Spring Election?Enter the Palace?" Su Wanxi was slightly surprised, she never thought that she was going to participate in the Spring Election, the emperor was already over forty years old, and now that he didn't care about the government, Su Ziyou would not be able to arrange himself to his side.

"Yes, don't you want to be the imperial concubine?" Qiu Zi asked very directly.

Su Wanxi smiled and said, "I won't." ”

Qiu Zi pouted slightly: "Hey, if you still want to enter the palace, we will have a companion!"

Su Wanxi could see that Qiu Zi was secretly happy when she said this, because she didn't enter the palace, she had one less rival to compete for. "So you want to enter the palace?"

Qiu Zi smiled: "Of course!"

"Have you seen the emperor?" asked Su Wanxi suspiciously.

"No, but my father told me that I was born to be the princess. Qiu Zi said, as if she was happy to accept it.

The current emperor Shen Wen was a generation of heroes when he was young, but he gradually began to indulge in lust, and even a little absurd, thinking that Qiu Zi, who has been in the boudoir, will never hear anyone mention these.

"So...... Would Miss Su ever think about marrying the crown prince?" Li Yue asked in a low voice.

Su Wanxi was stunned for a moment, and then couldn't help laughing, they were really a group of ignorant little women, who would not hide their hearts at all, thinking that when she wanted to marry Shen Jingyuan, she also told her at the Hundred Flowers Banquet, and told other women not to rob her. Counting the situation in the past few years, the women who talked and laughed together and fluttered butterflies together at the beginning are now married, and some have even died.

"No, it won't. Su Wanxi replied lightly, Su Ziyou clearly told himself that the person he was going to approach would never be Shen Jingyuan.

The Hundred Flowers Banquet passed with everyone chatting, and the years of women seemed to pass faster than those of men. Today's Hundred Flowers Banquet is almost all new faces, and in a few years, it will be a new batch of women......
